Social imaginaries about the use of technology and interpersonal relationships in university students through fiction films as a didactic resource

From the use of fiction cinema as a teaching resource, an educational experience is exposed with students of the Bachelor of Mathematics Teaching who participated in a film debate cycle focused on science fiction and possible worlds. Multiple have been the approaches that have been given to the cinema within the educational processes, however, to consolidate and systematize this potential, a categorization is proposed based on the didactic objectives starting from the most common uses. Through observing the film Her, the social imaginaries of young people are analyzed regarding the use and abuse of technology and how this impacts on interpersonal relationships. The work methodology focuses on what Torres (2015) proposed as a conceptualization of social imaginary and its potential within the processes of educational intervention, complemented by the construction of open question instruments with the proposed by Perez-Millan (2014) to the analysis of audiovisual products. The results corroborate some aspects regarding the position of young people, regarding virtual spaces of socialization and their impact on face-to face spaces in previous research as Ruelas (2013) or Sosa (2018). Social imaginaries that are detonated from fictional narratives such as cinema can be used to carry out specific educational interventions.
